Neu Klang

The unique and adventurous sounds that German bands like Can, Neu! or Kraftwerk produced in post-war 60s Germany, now known as Krautrock, are considered a blueprint for modern rock music. And the stream of their creative admirers and continuators has been constantly widening since the first fans like David Bowie and Iggy Pop. In Neu Klang , Christoph Dallach interviewed its pioneers and their answers combine to form an oral history that points far beyond the individual band histories.>
